Finite Element Analysis of the Application of Synthetic Fiber Ropes to Reduce Blast Response of Frames
Blast resistance has recently become increasingly relevant for structural engineers. Blast loads are created by explosive devices that, upon detonation, create pressure loads that are much higher than most that a structure would ever experience. While there are many types of blast loads that are i...
